The Porpoise Diving Life

I told you a few weeks ago about the incredible Gary Smith article in Sports Illustrated about Pat Tillman, the former NFL linebacker turned soldier who died in Afghanistan. In the recent issue of SI someone wrote a letter in reference to Tillman's "purpose-driven" life.
For all those who critique the "purpose-driven" language, particularly of Rick Warren's book and church, he is still one Christianity's best current spokespersons, and Calvin Miller told me recently in an interview that what he says when national magazines ask him questions about religion or politics or world events are typically precient.
